[QUOTE=Armor O'Malley]They were obviously too self-involved to notice then because he did finger pick, I'm not sure if he did all the time but just watch Cliff Em All or look at any old live pictures of him and you'll see.[/QUOTE]

Exactly. Cliff finger-plucked!

Cliff did a hybrid, I think. Half tap, half pick.

[QUOTE=Otherside]They(James&Kirk) said Rob was the first bassist to finger pluck.




...Owned.[/QUOTE]


Uh, no. And I quote from "Some Kind of Monster" the movie, Kirk says "We liked Rob (Trujillo). He played the bass with his fingers, which reminded us a lot of Cliff Burton."

does anybody here like "crash course in brain surgery" i like it, its got a catchy riff at the start, its a great song

Metallica are one of the biggest sellouts EVER they are good and everything but once they started to play one of the biggest roles in shutting down napster thats whaen they became sellouts. :upset: now all they are in it is for the money. :upset:

Uh, I'm just telling you what's in the official Metallica Book, So What!, in which they stated that rob was the first one.

yeah i know sum 41 are canadain, but i guess you fail to see my point so like a kindergarten student i will have to spell it out for you, she doesnt play any musical instrament, all she does is sing, and she sings about stupid teenage problems that i dont want to hear about anymore, sum 41 plays rock music and plays it pretty good except for For whom the bell tolls...

[QUOTE=Ktulu19]look at the Megadeth writing style on Megadeth CDs! Its almost an exact copy of Metallica's writing on CDs.

Still, as Metallica always does...THEY WILL COME UP WITH SOMETHING![/QUOTE]


Which Megadeth albums have you heard??? I love both bands, but even I know they sound different.


They will come up with something??? Realistically what have Metallica done studio album-wise since 1988???

Early Metallica is based on Dave's writing style.

[QUOTE=Paranoidd]Early Metallica is based on Dave's writing style.[/QUOTE]

Agreed. But in interviews Mustaine has said that he could have easily sounded just like Metallica, but he wanted to do something more,which he did.

I'm not disputing that.

I agree with Paranoidd, but I would like to say that without Cliff's interest in classical music and incorporating that into the band's music, it wouldn't have lasted.

I agree with that as well.

Oh my god, people still buy this! Metallica's "growth" over the years just proves that people will buy into anything as long as it still seems cool. Just cause its Metallica people totally bought into the bllues-country thing they did in the 90's, weren't we about thrash? I'm sorry but you people are easily bought, might as well go out and buy a Garth Brooks cd.

Shut up, Metallica in the 90's was still good, just not metal. It was different and they wanted to expand their musical accomplishments.

If they really cared about 'looking cool', then they wouldn't have sued Napster would they.

Actually heres what i think. Since i know alot about metallca il tell you guys. Metallica was formed by James and Lars. They wrote hit the lights together before Dave came in and before they had Ron. Hit the lights was pretty thrash right. If you actually buy Kill 'em All the only songs Dave even took part in were Horsemen, Jump in the Fire, Phantom Lord and Metal Militia. I think Metallica's sound is based on James's ideas. All that about James saying he's using Dave's ideas is bull.

I hear that brother, METALLICA RULES!

Yes, they do rule. Especially their older work which was based on Dave's writing style. It's great.

does anyone know if metallica are coming to big day out in australia? or are all you guys american?

Anyone met any members of metallica?

[QUOTE=hardkor]does anyone know if metallica are coming to big day out in australia? or are all you guys american?[/QUOTE]
Didn't they just go there?

I don't think Metallica are coming to Big Day out next year.

And early Metallica was based on both James and Dave.
